The government-run Central Trust of China has mandated for the first time that all desktop computers purchased from now on must be Linux-compatible, demonstrating the Chinese government's desire to widen the nation's usage of open source software. "It is a global trend that Linux is gaining wider adoption due to its lower costs and better adaptability," Mike Lin, a consultant at the Taipei Computer Association, told the Taipei Times yesterday. Note: This article is about the Republic Of China (Taiwan) and not The People's Republic Of China.

Hm, could the title be changed to say "Taiwanese government," then, to avoid widespread confusion? Even if you have a "one China" stance, this policy comes from the Taiwanese government, and only covers Taiwan and not the mainland.
